About the Data

File #1 includes data on House Members from Poole and Rosenthal's Voteview.com. I use the icpsr 
as a unique ID to match MCs' name, party, state and district to other data. 

File #2 is not used in this analysis. 

File #3 are banking industry data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. These data are used to 
measure banking concentration across states and time.   

File #4 includes information on every roll call vote that dealt with the New Deal regulatory regime in finance.
I score each relevant bill as liberal with a -1 (increase regulation) or conservative (decrease regulation) with a 
positive 1 along three regulatory dimensions. I also provide an overall measure of the ideological direction, and 
notes on the bill. 

Files #5-27 are district-level data the Scott Adler compiled and kindly made public on his website. They are mostly 
based on U.S. Census data. Along with the state-level measure of banking concentration from file #3, I use these data 
as explanatory variables in the regression models for this paper.

Files #28-50 are the votes of MCs on each roll call during these Congresses. I downloaded these data from 
Poole and Rosenthal's website Voteview.com

Files #51 is the R script used to organize and analyze the data.
